EPS Shape Moulding Machine For Lost Foam Casting

An EPS shape moulding machine for lost foam casting is a specialized piece of
equipment used in the lost foam casting process. it's a vertical type EPS
shape molding machine with Hydraulic system. It uses expandable polystyrene
(EPS) or copolymer materials as raw materials. After the raw materials are
foamed, dried, and cured, the machine automatically sends EPS and copolymer
beads into the mold, and then steam Heating and sintering forming, after
cooling and shaping, the foamed plastic products are automatically released
from the mold by compressed air.
Using an EPS shape moulding machine for lost foam casting allows for the
production of complex and intricate metal parts with high precision and minimal
post-casting machining. The lost foam casting process is commonly used in
various industries, including automotive, aerospace, and general engineering,
for its ability to create near-net-shape castings with reduced production time
and cost.
EPS Moulding Machine Structure
The equipment as a whole is composed of a molding machine support, an upper
mold base, a guide column, a lower mold base, a hydraulic system, and a control
cabinet.
The control system can be selected according to customer requirements (Delta,
Siemens) (Note: The high-voltage pulse feeding device can be optional for
customers)
Main functions and advantages
The main machine structure adopts high-strength (materials can be welded, cast
iron) frame and aging treatment, four-guide column vertical layout, stable and
reliable accuracy. The main components of the machine are selected from
international famous brand products to form a superior machine-electricity-
hydraulic-pneumatic integrated system, which makes the machine action reliable,
low energy consumption, long life, and high production efficiency.
The Eps shape moulding machine for lost foam casting is controlled by a
programmable controller (PLC), and the touch-type man-machine interface can set
the process parameters, and the built-in program can be applied to most of the
foam products molding process.
The EPS Shape Forming Machine adopts pressure heating control mode, users can
adjust according to their needs.
The movement is driven by a cylinder hydraulic system, with a differential
circuit, and it runs smoothly.
